A Better Alternative!
There is a growing trend in the path of electrification and an ever-increasing demand for more energy-efficient alternatives to compressed air methods. The main components for consideration when selecting the ideal various actuator sort are usually value, threat, efficiency and availability.
Cost reduction
Electric valves provide considerably larger effectivity, and consequently a better power balance, compared to pneumatic techniques. The reduction to a single power form ends in cost financial savings through decrease set up and maintenance requirements. Additionally, the system availability is increased, since potential faults are lowered.
Risk reduction
In the pharmaceutical/biotechnology industries, the critical course of steps require sterile compressed air. The technology of sterile compressed air together with the sterilising functionality of the complete system must be taken into consideration. Electrical valves can eliminate the danger of contamination. In pressure gauge to industrial purposes, if contaminated compressed air will get into the system or if there are fluctuations within the compressed air network, it could result in irreparable malfunctioning of pneumatic parts.
Performance increase
Thanks to their exact management systems with no overshooting and independence from the medium pressure, motorized valves are a becoming selection for control applications. In conjunction with a particularly excessive positioning accuracy, this leads to appreciable increases in productivity. A wide range of parameterization and diagnostic facilities that form the premise for rising digitalization are sometimes part of electrical valves (industry four.0 applications).
Availability
In many areas of software, there’s simply no compressed air out there for all kinds of causes. In contrast to this, electrical energy is practically ubiquitous – electrically operated valves can be utilized nearly anywhere in the facility.
The proper alternative of valve
GEMÜ provides an in depth range of electrical valves for all kinds of applications.
The GEMÜ R629 eSyLite is a low-cost diaphragm valve for easy and cost-sensitive functions. It constitutes a cheap alternative to solenoid valves manufactured from plastic or motorized plastic ball valves. Alternatively, GEMÜ eSyStep valves are designed for normal open/closed and easy management purposes, that includes a compact spindle actuator with step motor and can be mounted with electrical position indicators or journey sensors.
For variable and sophisticated open/closed and control functions, GEMÜ eSyDrive is extra suitable. Designed on the idea of the hollow shaft principle at the facet of know-how that does not use brushes/sensors, the eSyDrive actuator sets new standards when it comes to service life, compactness, actuating speed and energy effectivity. The self-locking actuator also presents a excessive level of reproducibility for positioning and is subsequently ideal for use in management purposes.
